Fabulous Friday Fitness Challenge

Drop and give me 20.

That's right, let's start the Fabulous Friday Fitness Challenge off with push ups. This is the classic full body exercise, we use our chest, back, shoulders, arms, legs and core to do push ups. Women are great at pushups!

Form

• Form is paramount, it ensures we are using the correct muscles and not putting any joints at risk.
• Place hands beneath your shoulders, comfortable space apart
• Keep your back straight from the top of your head to your feet or knees
• Pull your naval in and away from the floor to engage your core
• Butt down, Head up
• Bend your elbows till your arms are parallel with the ground. (lowering just your head and chin does NOT count)
• If pushups on your knees with a flat back, butt down are too much, start on your hands and knees, knees under your hips. Lift and lower from here.
• Use a mirror or ask a friend to spot ya.

 Tune in next week for another Fabulous Friday Fitness challenge.  

Do 20 full pushups, do them on knees, break them into 2 sets of 10 or 4 sets of 5. Just do them. Comment when you're done.  

READY...SET...GO!!!
